it's been a while, and I decided to pick this game back up. to anyone who plays it still, I remember being able to change the text in the bootloader and even the speech within the main game. I know I can override research, mission and script files, and other goodies, but the strings seem to require a specific setup to override the main game.

I'm not looking to create a mod that overrides the campaign, I don't want to copy all the files from main.dat so I created a data folder within game directory, and only placed in modded files I needed. I also need to change the strings that Sepulveda says, but strings_default.txt doesn't work. anyone here remember how to do this proper? thanks in advance.
